USA 2005, 88 minutes

Description: “Made in China" is often written on the clothes we wear, but under which circumstances are those cheap jeans and T-shirts actually made? China Blue takes a look behind the closed factory gates and gives the anonymous workers a face. Like young Jasmine, who endlessly snips away loose threads from completed jeans destined for the Western market. She is one of 130 million Chinese farmer's children who exchanged their rural life for a job in a factory: the world's largest migration wave. Jasmine earns six cents an hour, often works seven days a week, and does not get any extra money for overtime. She shares a room with twelve other girls, and the bland food she is dished up every day is automatically deducted from her meagre wages. We see a factory owner talking scornfully about his labourers, and employees who have to lie about the working conditions during inspections.
